On the one hand, your data is collected when you communicate it to us. This can e.g. be data that you enter in a contact form.

Other data are automatically recorded by our IT systems when you visit the website. This is mainly technical data (e.g. Internet browser, operating system or time of the page was viewed). This data is collected automatically as soon as you enter our website.

Some of the data is collected in order to ensure that the website is error-free. Other data can be used to analyze your user behavior.

You can contact us at any time at the address given in the legal notice if you have any further questions about data protection. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.

Use of Google Analytics with anonymization function

We use Google Analytics, a web analysis service from Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter referred to as “Google”, on our website. Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files that are stored on your computer and thereby enable your use of the website to be analyzed.

The information generated by these cookies, such as the time, place and frequency of your website visit including your IP address, is transmitted to Google in the USA and stored there.

We use Google Analytics with an IP anonymization function on our website. In this case, your IP address will already be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area and thereby anonymized.

Google will use this information to evaluate your use of our site, to compile reports on website activity for us and to provide other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties if this is required by law or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google.

According to its own information, Google will in no case associate your IP address with other Google data. You can prevent the installation of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; however, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of our website to their full extent.

Furthermore, Google offers a deactivation option for the most common browsers, which gives you more control over which data is collected and processed by Google.
If you activate this option, no information about the website visit will be transmitted to Google Analytics. Activation does not prevent information from being transmitted to us or to other web analysis services that we may use. Further information on the deactivation option provided by Google as well as on the activation of this option is available via the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en

You can also object to this analysis [ga-optout text=”here”].

Cookies

Some of the websites use so-called cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offer more user-friendly, more effective and safer. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser the next time you visit.

You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when you close the browser. If you deactivate cookies, the functionality of this website may be restricted.

Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions you require (e.g. shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR saved. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If other cookies (e.g. cookies for analyzing your surfing behavior) are stored, these will be treated separately in this data protection declaration.

Server log files

The website provider automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

  • Browser type and browser version
  • Operating system used
  • Referrer URL
  • Host name of the accessing computer
  • Time of the server request
  • IP address

This data will not be merged with other data sources.

4. Plugins und Tools

YouTube

Our website uses plugins from YouTube, operated by Google. The operator of the website is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

If you visit one of our pages equipped with a YouTube plug-in, a connection to the YouTube servers will be established. The YouTube server is informed which of our pages you have visited.

If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

YouTube is used in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of the German Section 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

Further information on handling user data can be found in YouTube’s data protection declaration at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.

Content Delivery Networks (CDN)

Our website uses MaxCDN (BootstrapCDN), a CDN from NetDNA, LLC (3575 Cahuenga Blvd. West, Suite 330, Los Angeles, CA 90068, USA; “MaxCDN”) and Google Fonts, a CDN from Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheater Parkway , Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”). CDN have the effect that the loading time of common JavaScript libraries and fonts is shortened because the files are transferred from fast, local or underutilized servers. Among other things, your IP address is transmitted to MaxCDN or Google. Both providers operate servers in the EU, but it cannot be ruled out that your browser will also access servers outside the EU. The content of our service and communication are not processed via CDN. In order to prevent the execution of JavaScript altogether, you can install a JavaScript blocker in your browser. You can find more information about the providers’ data protection on the Internet at:

Use of Google AdWords

Our website uses Google Conversion Tracking. The company operating the Google AdWords services is Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. If you have reached our website via an advertisement placed by Google, Google AdWords will set a cookie on your computer. The cookie for conversion tracking is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google.

If the user visits certain pages of our website and the cookie has yet to expire, we and Google can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies can, therefore, not be tracked via the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie generates conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers are told the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information to identify users personally.

You can find more information about data processing by Google in the Google privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy. You can also change your data protection settings in the data protection center.

Withdrawal of consent:

The provider does not currently offer the option of simply opting out or blocking data transmission. If you wish to prevent your activities on our website from being tracked, please revoke your consent for the relevant cookie category or all technically unnecessary cookies and data transmissions in the cookie consent tool. In this case, however, you may not be able to use our website or only use it to a limited extent.

Use of Facebook Pixel

To recognise your user behaviour, we use so-called “visitor action pixels”. Conversion measurement allows us to track across devices (including mobile phones, tablets and desktop computers) what actions people take after seeing our Facebook ads. By creating a Facebook pixel and adding it to our pages where conversions are made (e.g. the purchase confirmation page), we can identify which people make conversions as a result of our Facebook ads. The pixel further monitors the actions that people take after clicking on our ads. Here, we can determine on which device our customers saw the ad and on which devices they ultimately made the conversion. Consent to conversion measurement with the visitor action pixel from Facebook With your consent, we use the “visitor action pixel” from Facebook Inc, 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”) within our website. This conversion tool allows us to track your actions after you have seen or clicked on a Facebook ad. This is used to monitor and analyse the effectiveness of our Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes. Although we can only recognise this data in anonymised form, this data is also stored and processed by Facbook. We do not know what exactly Facebook does with this data, but it can be assumed that Facebook can and will link this data to your Facebook account. In this way, Facebook can use this information for the purposes of advertising, market research and needs-based design of the Facebook pages. To this end, Facebook and its partners create usage, interest and relationship profiles, e.g. to evaluate your use of our website with regard to the advertisements displayed to you on Facebook, to inform other Facebook users about your activities on our website and to provide other services associated with the use of Facebook. The legal basis for the use of the Facebook Pixel is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f) DS-GVO.
You can object to the aforementioned collection by Facebook Pixel and the use of your data to display Facebook Ads. You can make settings regarding which types of advertisements are displayed to you within Facebook on the following Facebook website:
https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads.
We would like to point out that this setting will be deleted when you delete your cookies in the browser. Further information on data processing by Facebook is available at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy.
